After a few fun days exploring Kampot on scooters, we were
on the move again back to Phnom Penh where we briefly stopped earlier. We
decided to book our minibus with Giant Ibis this time after reading various
positive reviews online! They have an office in Kampot and we booked onto the
14.45pm minibus the day before departure with no problem. There is also the
choice of a minibus leaving at 8am. This journey cost $9 dollars each which is quite
pricey for a 3-hour bus drive (in South-East Asia at least!).

| Leaving Kampot |
We arrived at the Giant Ibis office half an hour before
departure and left on time for Phnom Penh. Onboard the bus you get a free small
bottle of water and a pastry from Blue Pumpkin. These were both a nice little
something to keep you going. The minibuses are quite big and styled more like a
regular bus with an aisle down the middle. Plenty of room for everyone and the
air con was very much appreciated!
The final part of the journey heading into Phnom Penh was
quite busy and took a little longer than anticipated. You get dropped off at
the Giant Ibis office in Phnom Penh that is located next to the night market. Beware
that plenty of tuk tuk drivers await you as you depart the bus! We decided to
walk instead with only staying ten minutes away.

All in all, another hassle-free minibus journey and we would definitely recommend using Giant Ibis.
